Report
Do not use the Cherry Hill office. We were forced to accept a horrible deal on a custody case due to the lack of response, care, or filing of anything on our behalf. Due to the lack of preparation for court, we are currently stuck in a bad agreement and have to go back to court for contempt because of it. Still waiting for a refund on the remaining balance of our retainer as we know for a fact it was not used!
